Pintu Bug Bounty Program Policy

Last updated: 24 October 2024

Introduction

Pintu (hereinafter referred to as Pintu, we, our, us) is Indonesia’s leading Blockchain technology company. We are a strong Indonesian and International team passionate about using blockchain to drive positive change in Indonesia.

Here at Pintu, we take security seriously and understand the importance and value that external security researchers can bring. Thus we invite external security researchers (hereinafter referred to as the reporter, you) to report any security issues on our assets. We will investigate all the reports sent to us and seek to reward the reports that meet our reward criteria and follow our disclosure policy. 

No technology is perfect and Pintu believes that working with skilled security researchers across the globe is crucial in identifying weaknesses in any technology. We look forward to receiving reports from you to keep our customers and businesses safe.

By joining, accessing, and participating in the Bug Bounty Program (“Program”),  the reporter agrees to comply with and will be bound to all the policies, terms, and conditions as written in this Program Policy (“Policy”) and acknowledge that this Policy constitutes a legally binding agreement between you and Pintu. If the reporter does not agree to the Policy, the Reporter may stop accessing, participating, and/or joining the Program.  

 

Disclosure Policy

For all the reports that are sent to us, we require the reporter to follow our following disclosure policy:

  • Once a security issue has been identified the reporter is required to immediately report the issue by sending an email to  [email protected]
  • The details of the security issue cannot be shared with anyone without written approval from us
  • While looking for security issues, the reporters must make a good-faith effort to avoid any privacy violations. The reporters have to ask us first for more information before engaging in activities that might violate our other policies.
  • Found security issues are not to be exploited in any way. This includes making the issue public (without our consent) or exploiting it to make profits or cause reputation damage.

 

Response SLA

We will make the best effort to meet the following SLAs for researchers participating in our program:

We’ll try to keep you informed about our progress throughout the process.

 

Actions to Avoid

The reporters are prohibited from performing the following actions:

  • Testing on accounts other than those that you own
  • Automated testing using tools such as scanners
  • Excessive request attempts that affect the availability of our services to all users
  • Destruction of data or service
  • Do not copy any files from our applications/servers and disclose them
  • Denial of service (DoS) attacks on applications, servers, networks or infrastructure are strictly forbidden

 

Reporting Criteria

  • All the reports are to be reported at [email protected]
  • The reporter must mention any additional information, data, and sensitive information that was accessed while identifying the issue.
  • We encourage researchers to include videos or screenshots (proof-of-concept) in reporting security vulnerabilities. These files should not be shared publicly. This includes uploading to any website that is publicly accessible (like Vimeo, Imgur, etc.). If the file exceeds 50 MB, upload the file to a secure online folder such as Dropbox that is protected with a password.
  • The reporter must report only one report per issue and provide any additional information and follow-up information requested by us.

 

Report Evaluation

To be deemed valid, a report must demonstrate a vulnerability in a service provided by Pintu that harms Pintu or Pintu customers. Reports that include a clear Proof of Concept or specific step-by-step instructions to replicate the vulnerability are considerably more effective at communicating a researcher’s findings and are therefore far more likely to be deemed valid.

To qualify for a bounty, a report must contain vulnerabilities and assets that are listed in scope. Pintu awards bounties based on the severity of the vulnerability based on two factors: Impact and Exploitability.

Impact describes the effects of successful exploitation upon Pintu systems or customers. We make this assessment primarily by examining the effects of exploitation on confidentiality, integrity, or availability of underlying information.

Vulnerabilities that require considerable response and remediation efforts or could result in reputational damage are also considered to have a greater impact.

 

Reward Policy

Only vulnerabilities with a working proof of concept showing how they can be exploited and vulnerabilities with a real security impact will be considered eligible for monetary rewards. Determination of whether a reported issue sufficiently meets the bar for monetary rewards is done at Pintu’s discretion.

  • Pintu reserves the right to determine the bounty amount and whether a report qualifies for a reward, where such a decision by Pintu is final and cannot be contested.
  • The report and identified issue must be original and we award the first reporter to report an issue. Any previously known issue will be treated as a duplicate.
  • Security issues with a working proof-of-concept that demonstrates impact will be rewarded.
  • We determine bounty amounts based on a variety of factors, including (but not limited to) impact, ease of exploitation, and quality of the report. Note that extremely low-risk issues may not qualify for a bounty at all.
  • We seek to pay similar amounts for similar issues, but bounty amounts and qualifying issues may change with time. Past rewards do not necessarily guarantee similar results in the future.
  • For any multiple findings that can be resolved in a single fix, only a single report will be eligible for a reward (e.g: same endpoint that has the same vulnerability category, same impact but in different parameters or different HTTP method, and other findings which similar to that scenario)
  • Any reports considered out of scope but have a serious security impact, will be reviewed and rewarded on a case-by-case basis.
  • Rewards for resurfaced bugs would be on a case-by-case basis and may not adhere to the rewards table.
  • We are keen to work with the Bug Hunter to make sure that every researcher’s finding is rewarded fairly – based on the vulnerability’s impact on business and overall severity. Extraordinarily severe issues or those with extreme impact may be rewarded up to $1000. 
  • Pintu reserves the right not to award or cancel the rewards for the reporters if it is reasonably determined or suspected that the reporters have:
    • Committed fraud or other illegal acts that violate the law; and/or
    • Violated these terms and conditions under this Policy, any applicable policies during the use of Pintu platform by reporters, and/or applicable laws and regulations.

 

Rewards Table

The details of the rewards for reporters who meet the terms and conditions of this Policy (“Eligible Reporters“) are as follows:

For the avoidance of doubt,  Pintu and the reporter shall be responsible for their own tax obligations arising from any rewards provided in this Program.

Safe Harbour

  • CONFIDENTIALITY – All reported security vulnerabilities should not leak into public spaces. The reporter must obey all the confidentiality provisions as written in this Policy.
  • INTEGRITY – Only report security issues deemed valid and do not use the findings of the security vulnerabilities for tampering purposes. If there is more than 1 report regarding the same security problem, the first one to report will be considered valid.
  • PROFESSIONALISM – Security researchers are fully responsible for the findings reported and should be contacted if necessary for explanation or other complementary information
